Downloaded Positron today. In my plot window, the plot text is very tiny as compared to what it was in my RStudio window. I'm creating ggplots with R in a Quarto doc. Attached are screenshots from each.
How do I change the settings in Positron so I can read the axis text and labels? In Positron, I've tried adjusting the plot size and shape. A custom size (e.g. 600 x 300) enlarges the text, but it becomes blurry.
Hi Eric,
Are you asking about seeing things in your session or when you save them for later? You can resize the plot area or click on the box with an arrow in it (just to the left of the trash can).
Opening the graph in it's own window lets you size it however you want, save it, etc. I like the choices that show when you click the arrow on the button:
The Editor tab to the side lets you see incremental improvements / changes.
Thanks for sharing what you're seeing there!
Can you also compare using the ragg backend in RStudio to what you see in Positron, so you are comparing apples to apples? We use a different backend by default than RStudio, so if you can opt in to ragg in RStudio that can help us understand if any differences you are seeing are because of the backend rendering or something on the frontend.
